| dc.description | Agriculture sector in Kenya is the fundamental part of the economy contributing 25 percent of the total Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and another 27 percent indirectly. The sector employs over 40 percent of the total population and over 70 percent of the rural people. This sector in Kenya is large and complex, with a multitude of public, parastatal, non-governmental and private actors, accounts for 65 percent of the export earnings and provides livelihood (employment, income, and food security n eeds) for more than 80 percent of the Kenyan population. Agriculture in Kenya is facing many challenges and threats such as increase in fuel prices, climate change and regional surrounding instability etc. The good performance of this sector ensures good performance of the entire economy. Therefore the policy and institutional frameworks governing the agricultural sector play a vital role for the development of the whole economy. Kenya | |
